The Residence, Mauritius

In a simply stunning location on the east coast of Mauritius, on mile-long Belle Mare Beach with its lagoon, The Residence with its breezy colonial-style architecture and interiors is a popular five-star choice with spacious rooms and a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere – not least in the spa. And while you're off being pampered, kids can take part in activities in the Planter Kids' Club complete with its own Petit Chef cookery school.

For family time, there's a whole array of things to do on site and nearby, including beach volleyball snorkelling, camel- or horse-riding and quad-biking. There's also authentic local entertainment to enjoy, including sega dancing. The option of a personal butler can help you devote more of your holiday to chilling out with the kids.
